Freebie Quilt Block Download
If you've ever been curious about hand-sewing patchwork and quilts, let me tell you that it's not as daunting as it may sound! In fact, hand-sewing patchwork is my favorite method for creating quilts, and for good reason. One of the most significant advantages of hand sewing is its freedom of shape and design, making y-seams, partial seams, and seam management a breeze. It's also a great way to find joy and mindfulness in creativity, which I call "dopamine quilting."
